William & Bonnie is hosting a fundraiser and silent auction on July 13 from 6 to 8 p.m. to help them raise money for a new location and new projects!

This event is to help William & Bonnie purchase a new space that would allow them to bring a variety of small-scale, sustainable practices to the Detroit textile and fashion industries. They are also planning on planting a garden of beets and berries to use as fabric dye and coordinating textile compost. There would also be community events and workshops surrounding the behind-the-scenes of the textile industry.

William & Bonnie is halfway to their goal and have already been approved for 75% of project implementation costs! Come out and support a unique part of Detroit's textile industry with this amazing event while also picking up some new goods.

The event will be taking place at Orleans + Winder, which is located at 2501 Russell St. #200 in Detroit. You can find out more information about their Farm to Fashion plans here.
